zeekayandHanzo Dev 05c4298b9f An import killed partway through a round starts again
A node killed while admin_importChain was accepting a round could not start
its C-Chain again: "required historical state unavailable (reexec=2)". The
import wrote the acceptor tip for the whole round first and then committed the
round's tries one block at a time, so a kill in between left a tip on disk
above the accepted pointer, naming blocks whose state was never written.
reprocessState re-executes from the acceptor tip, which it takes to be at or
below the block it recovers, and searches back from there only 2x the commit
interval for a state to start from.

The import now accepts each block the way the acceptor does, through the one
acceptDurably both call: tip, then trie, a block at a time. And reprocessState
moves an acceptor tip that is above the accepted block back to it, which is
what recovers a database an earlier release left that way.

TestImportArchive_KilledAnywhereRestarts kills an import at every write it
makes, reopens from the accepted pointer the VM would read, resumes, and
restarts once more. On the previous code, at commit interval 1, the kill after
write 11 of 48 does not start again.
